This is basically what's happening with Juri super where if you don't press anything the full animation plays where she kinda leans her elbow on her knee, it's basically the move is finished so you have back control of your character but the animation is still playing, where during moves your control is basically switched off, it's listed in a lot of the frame data, but the difference in where you end up and how you can use that to space yourself out, like you show in the video is really cool to know and I have never seen anyone talk about it so thanks for sharing this 👍 and yeah what Eileen said: they been hiding tech 😂 pros don't tell us anything til they rinsed everyone at the tourneys with it
i'd say it's intentional. From what I can tell, the way it works is that, after the "true" end of any move animation, there's an extra bit of animation that can be cancelled by any input (i guess for flavor or whatever). For some moves, that extra animation pulls the character back, and if you cancel it, that movement back doesn't get to happen. Putting in the extra work to move the character position back for a few extra frames of animation seems very intentional to me.
It's probably just a result of not making the recovery animations, or at least their playback in game, take the exact same number of frames as the actual hardcoded recovery of the move, rather than it being some specific developer-set move property. In this case, the animation being slightly longer meaning you are able to move again before the animation has played out completely, so the tail end of it essentially gets cancelled.
@@Giraffinatorsound's like it's about as intentional as most bugs that devs know about and make it to launch of a game(not very and just more how circumstances lined up). Many things are left in during development if it causes more work and a dev needs ensure they ship out the product on time with not too many glaring flaws. As to work on more pressing noticeable matters this was probably low on the totem pole since most players will push another button and not realize in a live match. Along with the fact it's not on a large amount of moves. I'm sure that if this is brought to their attention with enough complaints they will fix it, as it's a weird inconsistency and makes some moves too strong and weird to balance as it's not naturally something any characters kit is built around(currently).
That's actually sick! And it's cool how it ends up creating this anime situation where if you "keep your control and master your body" instead of panic blocking or mashing, you dodge your opponent's attack (Ultra Instinct-style).
@@t0ny97 I think I saw someone refer to it as transition frames, and the distance you travel can be based off of when you cancel the transition frames into a button our crouch. In season 1 of sf5 you could cancel the transition frames of Zangief's st lk, if you mashed st lk you could move either forwards or backwards based on when you pressed the subsequent st lk!
I've noticed this with Juri's st mp also, but I didn't think much of it because just holding back also made things whiff that wouldn't normally if I had crouched. it's also plus, though, so maybe that has more to do with it.
Yeah, this is just letting the full animation play. it usually isnt super useful as most characters get more distance out of just cancelling the animation and walking backwards instead of crouch blocking, this is also safer. It is situationally useful however against moves that have very early proxy guard frames like Marisa st.hk.
when it comes to normals like these even walking backwards and crouching puts you in the same spacing. However normals that dont have that are better off walking back afterwards. This is quite useful as well against people who overuse cr.mk
@@t0ny97 Hey not quite sure what you're saying here. When you say normals like these do you mean normals with early proxy guard frames or normals with pushback in their IASA frames? If you mean the second, there are absolutely some normals that have pushback on characters where it is still better to just walk back instead of letting the animation play out as walking back puts more distance before some types of counterattacks.
I believe this is a result of the actionable animation flourishes added in Street fighter V. Of course it's only useful if the displacement per frame is greater than that of the characters backwalk. Unrelated, but fun tip if you turn on the action timing display and set it to floor it shows a character's origin point.
It can be useful regardless of backwalk distance, because if the opponent hits a button they usually get the full range of their proximity guard within the first few startup frames. But if you're not holding a direction, you can still get the extra pushback.
I remember noticing this with manon as well. It seems to be something with how animation canceling interacts with moves that have a lot of pull back. I cent remember the specific situations, but it can be a factor with some special cancels and target combos where when you cancel can affect the spacing
Yeah crouching makes your hurtbox bigger that I know. but here the reason for blocking is the spacing. because if I press st.hp from the same spacing and press back (stand guard) the character still blocks
@@zackdoom there’s that too, but the point was that if you cancel the last part of the move into anything it won’t work. I choose crouch block because that’s the most common thing people do. Walking back would not work either
@@t0ny97 yeah and crouch block stays still. Comment is just for any newcomers since this stuff was in 4 really cool stuff I havent played in months but I think this applies to characters dashes too if you let go of direction. Might be 5 though Definitely on drive rushes though
I know some of these have the same effect by just holding back (not down back). The thing is that SF6 has tons of "recovery" animations which are actually cancellable. Kinda like Dee Jay has a whole dance to transition from Parry to neutral stance. It takes something like 2 seconds for him to complete, but as soon as the 45 frames passes, you can cancel the whole animation with anything, even crouching. For Manon specifically though, this doesn't work. The step she takes with sHP is huge and her walk speed is ass. It's on a case-by-case basis where it's worth testing all your main has.
@@Raxyz_0 the buttons i showed here doesn’t work with holding back. Could you give me some examples of move that has similar properties but holding back?
@@t0ny97 Back in S1 when I played Marisa I used to do a lot of spacing traps with her crMP doing this, but I think she doesn't move forward that much during animation. I was trying to learn something similar with crHK as Aki, but that's when Bison released and I ended up switching to him. His buttons are dumb are mostly plus already so it's just regular shimmy. I'd have to test around when I get home. I'm thinking mostly high movespeed characters like Chun, Cammy or Akuma.
Does this work if you tap back, instead of down, after the hit? For creating spacing traps I often press the attack and microwalk back on block. Maybe I shouldn’t do that
I think an easier way of explaining this isn't that moves have a unique property but that because crouching makes your hurtbox bigger, it will effectively move you forward after certain normals that move you and thus if you crouch block after certain moves you're more vulnerable to whiff punishes.
This has nothing to do with the crouching hurtbox being wider. In the Manon example, walking backwards (with a standing hurtbox) would have also left her close enough for Luke to connect with 5HP. The extra movement is just a part of the recovery animation that gets interrupted if you input any button/direction
Someone show this to Broski and Brian_F
Imagine if they alr know 😅
I'm pretty sure they know what a space trap is.
That is actually crazy, and also, obligatory of course ken st.hp has this as the button that has literally everything.
@@gwen9939 yeah the god button
my boi ken too weak, needs buff capcom pls
Cr.mk is his goat button
he needs it
@@hidoryy no he doesn’t you are just trash and probably one of those players who just spams that button in neutral hoping to get the dr cancel.

This is actually so fascinating. I wonder if this was a oversight or if they meant to add this level of depth.

Woaahhhh that’s pretty sick, I haven’t been as heavy into SF lately cause of Tekken but when I go back this is definitely some tech I’ll be applying
Yo how we just getting told. Cats be hiding tech
STSFN alive and well 😌
Wow, thats REALLY interesting. I need to check this for Chun
Does Chun have any buttons with this property?
Please do let us know if it works for her. 😊

This was in v as well, youre letting the animation play out instead of canceling it into crouch

Crouching makes your hurtbox bigger. That's the reason for blocking as opposed to whiffing.
Yeah crouching makes your hurtbox bigger that I know. but here the reason for blocking is the spacing. because if I press st.hp from the same spacing and press back (stand guard) the character still blocks
Pfp (Profile Picture) and / or Banner Source (Link to full Image and Artists Names?) 🗿
Aki cr mp has this property (or something similar) as well. Found it on accident while experimenting in training mode.
This is also due to crouching moving ur hurtbox forward slightly

Ok boys time to get hit with low forward dr
low forward will whiff if you do this
Dang akuma doesn't have this, of course ken does tho
I think aki cr mp does it too
This video is too good I have to search it up on UA-cam again just to give it a thumbs up. Good stuff!

@@chatjayasuriya7567 nope, pressing back, forward, up, down none works
Now test whether you'd have more distance from holding back vs time for animation to finish
i have checked, holding back = crouching after the button. you gotta let the animation finish
Absolutely incredible video
